My view in Downward Facing Dog…

Yoga is not about being perfectly focused every second...It is the continual RE-focusing when distractions occur. RE-focusing when a cat grabs your toe with his claws. RE-focusing when you fall out of a pose. RE-focusing when your mind wanders to a task you have to get done. RE-focusing and then more RE-focusing!

If you find yourself continually needing to refocus the mind during your practice on the mat, you’re doing it right! THAT is the practice!! 🙌🏽

Thank you to all who joined me for a look into Ayurvedic wisdom around longevity and joyful aging. We had a great group of women looking to maintain their health as they age with grace and gratitude!! 🙏🏼

Thank you to Kat, of Transcendent Yoga and Holistic Health, for inviting me to lead this workshop in your beautiful space. I am grateful. 🙏🏼

If you have any questions around diet, lifestyle practices, or herbal protocols and aging gracefully, please reach out. Ayurveda is the study of life…aging with grace and health is the result.

“It is Enough” by Danna Faulds

It is enough right now
to taste one moment of
peace. Of course I want
more, but at least the
door is open.

It is enough to draw a
conscious breath and
let my hands relax,
fingers releasing their
tight grasp on things
outside of my control.

It is enough to shed a
layer of stress as if
taking off a jacket or a
pair of too tight shoes.

Ease of being has to
start somewhere.
This breath is my
first step.

🧘🏾🧘🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏾🧘🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏾🧘🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏾🧘🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏾🧘🏽‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️
Join us Wednesday at 5pm and “taste a moment of peace.” No experience necessary. No need to bring anything…Just you. Please arrive a few minutes early to meet the instructor and get signed in.

Join us tomorrow at 5pm for a midweek reset. 🧘🏽‍♀️

When you’re an Ayurvedic Practitioner…but also a Nana!
Molasses Spice cookies are a terrific after school snack!

This is an old family recipe, with a few Ayurvedic tweaks:
➡️I used blackstrap molasses instead of molasses.
➡️I cut the sugar in half and used an unrefined form called “jaggery.”
➡️I added extra spices (cloves, ginger, cinnamon, cardamom).
➡️I used half whole wheat flour.
…And to make them fun, I rolled them in rainbow sanding sugar!! 🌈

Eating according to Ayurvedic guidelines doesn’t have to boring or rigid. Making small changes that you can live with consistently can lead to lasting and long-term change.

I am accepting new clients for one-on-one Ayurvedic counseling sessions. Currently booking out into November. DM to get started.

A new yoga student brought me a fresh bunch of Holy Basil or Tulsi from her garden. I made a cup of tea and it was the best tea I’ve ever had. Literally the best.

She knew tulsi was an Ayurvedic herb, but didn’t realize that I was an Ayurvedic Practitioner. (Much about this class was synchronicity, with so many connections between students and the group as a whole!)

Holy Basil or Tulsi is a powerful herb used to
🔥kindle the digestive fire or boost digestion
🫧relieve gas
🧴ease skin conditions
⬇️move Vata downward through the GI tract
🔃increase circulation
🫀has an affinity for the heart
🫁clear mucus from the lungs
🕉️increase Prana, the vital life force

There are no contraindications for holy basil.

Thank you so much, Brittany. I can’t wait for my cup today!! 🙏🏼

Wednesday Unwind is an accessible yoga offering aiming to release tension in the body and mind. This is a gentle class, suitable for all ages and abilities. We explore various expressions of a pose to find what works for each body, fitting the pose to the body rather than squeezing the body into the pose.

Join me tonight at Trillium in Potsdam. Class begins at 5pm for a 45 minute class. $15 for drop in or $120 for a 10 class card.
